the conclusion that as the people wouldn't run
to politics, they had gone to religion, and in
stead of spending money on county court
houses, they had invested in churches.

At the End, we got out Of our vehicle, and
went down over the cliffs to see what we had
come there for. 1t was grand sight, too,
for us that had seen so little. The great rocks,
100 feet high, stretch up out Of the clear
water like walls about ''the tight little
island" and we could see everywhere the
marks of the waters that had beaten against
them for thousands Of years. This point is
nightmare to sailors, and though there are
lighthouses in the bad places, still the ships
would just as leave be some place else in
stormy weather. Mandy wouldn't 60 to the

statesmanlike attitude Of laying fat on my
stummick, stuck my head over the last rock,
and for a minute was the most southern man
in Great Britain. Then climbed up on a
Mandy amt congress, and my remarks were
entirely lost. We went to the "Last House
in England" and the last hotel, where we ct
bite. and then started back.
We reached Penzance in time to take a
few more looks at its crooked streets, and /
went out on the docks, where could take
chew of tobacco and spit in the sea. It's the
only spittoon I've been able to find 50 far, ex-
cept little bent rusty one at Plymouth that
hadn't seen service for ten years. haven't
seen anybody using the weed, except to smoke
it occasionally, since I've been here, and I've

tobacco juice and ask me for IS there would
be a bond Of sympathy between us at once
that would fetch the money
In this regard think England is behind

Fighting the Tiger.

A curious commercial enterprise has been
set on foot at Monte Carlo According to a
letter just received from there, a syndicate
has been formed to fight the tiger on sys-
tenn. Clerk and markers are employed to play
mechanically all day long at three roulette
tables exactly as directed. The system is said
to have paid a profit Of 100000 in two
months, and to have disturbed the admins
tration by its continued success. Some of the
visitors have been playing iii excellent luck
Of late, and large winnings are reported. A
young English couple, the husband being
lord, have just left with a profit Of 81 ,0Ot
over all expensAs. They had only played fol-
amusement ArGonaut.

Jacob Gaudaur, who is now the un-
disputed champion single sculler of the
United States and Canada, is native
of st. Louis, Mo- He was first
brought into prominence by John A st.
John, we'll known sporting man. His first
race of any note outside of ordinary regattas
was the one with John Teemer, then cham
pion of the United States, at Pullman, Ills.
last year. Gaudaur won with such ridiculous
ease that many parsons supposed that there
was an African citizen concealed some
where in the woodpile, but the prob
able explanation is that Teemer had
moderated his man, and was consequently
not in proper fix" as he went all to pieces
early in the race. Gaudaur is a tall, why
young man, being close on to six feet in
height, and weighing in condition about 1853
pounds. His strongest point is his extreme
conscientiousness in training. Ever since he
entered the aquatic arena he has kept his eye
constantly fixed upon the worlds champion
ship, and each race since his debut has car
ried him nearer to the coveted goal
